	Arturo Moreno - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Arturo "Arte" Moreno (born 1946) is a Mexican American billionaire who, on May 15, 2003, made history by becoming the first Hispanic to own a major sports team in the United States.
		Moreno is a native of Tucson, Arizona, and the oldest of 11 children.
		Moreno saw the change as part of an overall strategy to increase the team's revenue by actively marketing it to, and associating it with, the entire Los Angeles metropolitan area, rather than restricting the team's identity to the city of Anaheim and to Orange County.
